The last version that worked was from the 15th and there seem to be
similar issues in mainline since -rc1.

Thanks for the report Mark, afaict the problem showed up in v5.3-rc1 as
well.

I think the problem is that the regulator supplying the GPU power
domain(s) isn't enabled - and I think there's a lack of agreement of how
this should be controlled.

But we have a partial fix for this floating around, I will give it a
spin.

Regards,
Bjorn

As you might have seen this problem has come and gone on the
apq8096-db820c and I've finally managed to narrow it down a little bit.

The problem first appears on next-20190701, with the introduction of
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE in the defconfig, but after further efforts I've
concluded that disabling kpti removes or hides the problem.

With kpti=no on the command line I've now successfully booted the db820c
100+ times without problems (a clear improvement from the 75% failure
rate with kpti=yes).


Unfortunately I'm not yet certain why this is causing issues and I'm
also seeing the same rcu stall on SDA845 under certain (erroneous?)
conditions (where I don't expect them). 

Regards,
Bjorn
